I love this kit! I added a 18650 holder and changed the source code dramatically. I increased the feature set to 4 alarms with different tones for each, 24h time keeping, battery voltage measurement, internal temperature (doesn’t work due to VREF tied to VCC), and adjustable display brightness.

In 2003, CU student Nate Seidle blew a power supply in his dorm room and, in lieu of a way to order easy replacements, decided to start his own company. Since then, SparkFun has been committed to sustainably helping our world achieve electronics literacy from our headquarters in Boulder, Colorado.

No matter your vision, SparkFun's products and resources are designed to make the world of electronics more accessible. In addition to over 2,000 open source components and widgets, SparkFun offers curriculum, training and online tutorials designed to help demystify the wonderful world of embedded electronics.
